The findings of optical coherence tomography of retinal degeneration in relation to the morphological and electroretinographic features in <i>RPE65</i><sup>−/−</sup> mice
Version 1PurposeMutations of the gene encoding RPE65 cause Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) retinitis pigmentosa (RP). The optical coherence tomography (OCT) is increasingly utilized to noninvasively evaluate various types of retinal diseases, including RP. The present study was conducted to characterize the OCT findings of the RPE65−/− mice—an animal model of LCA and RP—in relation to the morphological features based on histological and electron microscopic findings as well as electroretinography (ERG)
